Gang-Raped Sleeping Beauty

Remember how someone associated with the National House of Prayer (NHoP) refered to Canada as Cinderella with amnesia?

In many ways, we, as a nation, are like Cinderella with amnesia. We’ve been chosen as a princess, and given many wonderful gifts, but we can’t remember who we are.

The more Stevie’s bullies engage in frat-boyz antics, the more it seems a different metaphor emerges for Canada - like Sleeping Beauty, drugged by roofies slipped into her glass and then sexually assaulted by a power-intoxicated gang of ReformaTories (who probably eschewed the use of condoms). And, unfortunately, Sleeping Beauty slumbers on, still comatose while the PredaTories continue their reign of obstructing, slashing, burning and pillaging.
